    Abstract: A braking device for a moveable door leaf comprises an electrical brake motor being operated as a generator, the motor shaft of which is rotatable by a movement of the door leaf and which can be controlled for regulating the closing speed of the door leaf by means of an electronic evaluation and control unit, which is at least partially providable with electrical energy by an electric motor being operated as a generator, particularly the brake motor, and/or by means of an additional generator unit. The electronic evaluation and control unit is thus operable in a sleep mode and is cyclically displaceable into a waking state depending on the closing speed of the door leaf, wherein the wake-up frequency with which the electronic evaluation and control unit is cyclically awakened during a respective closing movement of the door leaf is less at relatively lower closing speeds of the door leaf than at relatively greater closing speeds of the door leaf. A door closer with a mechanical energy storage and a correspondingly designed braking device is also disclosed.

    Abstract: A damper providing varying damping force is provided. The damper may include a housing and a rotary member rotatably received the housing. The rotary member may rotate within the housing between defined end points of travel to define an angular range of travel of the rotary member. An outermost surface of the rotary member may be spaced inwardly from an inner surface of the housing defined between the end points of travel to define a gap between the outermost surface of the rotary member and the inner surface of the housing throughout the angular range of travel. The gap may vary in dimension depending on a rotational position of the rotary member to provide varying damping rates within the angular range of travel of the rotary member.

    Abstract: An automotive door system includes a hinge supporting a door. A door check module interconnects to one of the vehicle and the door by a linkage assembly. An output shaft is connected to the linkage assembly and rotates relative to a door check module housing. The output shaft provides an output torque to check the door in a desired door position. A sensor detects rotation of the shaft and produces a signal in response thereto. A brake assembly includes a shaft member operatively connected to the output shaft. The brake assembly has a normally closed position in which the shaft member is grounded to the housing in a door check mode. The brake assembly includes an open position that corresponds to one of a door closing mode and a door opening mode. The brake assembly moves from the normally closed position to the open position in response to the signal.

    Abstract: A hinge comprises a hinge part, which can be secured on a door of the shutter and is mounted on a side part such that it can be pivoted via a carrying lever and a guide lever, also comprises at least one spring, by means of which the hinge part, in a self-retracting region of the hinge, is prestressed into a closed position, and further comprises a linear damper with a piston rod, which can be moved relative to a damper housing and is intended for damping a closing and/or opening movement of the hinge part, wherein a deflecting element is provided, said deflecting element being mounted on the side part such that it can be rotated about an axis and being arranged between the damper and the guide lever so that, during a closing movement of the hinge part, it moves the damper in order to generate a damping force, wherein, during an opening movement of the hinge part, the deflecting element moves the damper in order to generate a damping force before the fully open position of the hinge part has been reached. This makes it possible to avoid hard impact of a door in the opening direction.

    Abstract: The invention relates to a drive arrangement for an adjusting element of a motor vehicle, a clutch arrangement which is connected into the drive train with a drive connection and a driven connection, the clutch arrangement at any rate forwarding a movement which is introduced on the drive side to the driven connection and having a braking arrangement for braking a movement which is introduced on the output side. The braking arrangement has a braking element which can be adjusted counter to a braking force, in that, between the output connection and the braking element, the clutch arrangement has a freewheel arrangement comprising at least one freewheel pair of clamping body freewheels which operate in opposite directions, in that a movement which is introduced on the output side always brings about the blocking of at least one clamping body freewheel and is correspondingly braked via the braking arrangement.
